How Much: £380.00 (Highest Price) , £10.00 (Lowest Price)
As a glittering finale to their mini summer season, the Mariinsky theatre present the classic version of Tchaikovsky's masterpiece as choerographed by two of the Russian greats: Marius Petipa and Konstantin Sergeyev.

This traditional, lavish staging will feature the Kirov's finest dancers including Viktoria Tereshkina, Uliana Lopatkina, Alina Somova, Andrian Fadeev and Leonid Sarafanov.

We don't know much about ballet at Spoonfed Towers but I've seen this production and I can tell you, you won't forget it. There's a reason the Russians are proud of their ballet. They're the freakin' best.
